Discover the Enchanting Celtic Glen Heritage Livestock Farm

A Legacy of Sustainable Farming in Indiana

Nestled in the Heartland of Indiana

Celtic Glen Heritage Livestock thrives in the rolling hills of Owen County, a region once home to the Miami, Pottawatomie, Delaware, and Eel River tribes. The farm's serene glen lies near the tranquil waters of the White River, offering a picturesque setting for this family-owned operation.

Honoring the Past, Embracing the Future

The Celtic Glen story began in the 1950s when Paul Ault, a factory worker by day, poured his dreams and passion into cultivating this idyllic property. Today, as a local, family-run farm, Celtic Glen continues his legacy, offering a diverse array of heritage livestock, natural meats, educational workshops, and immersive agritourism experiences.

Rare Breed Conservation and Sustainable Farming

Preserving Genetic Diversity

As members of the Livestock Conservancy, the team at Celtic Glen is dedicated to raising rare and heritage breeds, including Irish Dexter and Scottish Highland cattle, Scottish Soay sheep, Myotonic and Arapawa goats, and Argente, American, and Silver Fox rabbits. These unique animals thrive on the farm's lush pastures, contributing to the preservation of genetic diversity.

Sustainable Practices, Exceptional Flavors

Celtic Glen's ruminants are raised as autonomously as possible, grazing on natural grasses and forages. This grass-fed and finished approach, combined with predator-compatible and wetland conservation practices, results in a lighter environmental footprint and more nuanced, intense meat flavors. Heritage breeds require less intervention, allowing the farm to prioritize animal welfare and sustainable stewardship of the land.

Immersive Agritourism Experiences

Connecting Visitors with the Land

Celtic Glen invites guests to experience the beauty and tranquility of the farm firsthand. From educational workshops on animal care and processing to farm stays and school field trips, visitors can forge meaningful connections with the land, the livestock, and the rich cultural heritage of the region.

Whether you're interested in learning the art of homesteading with rabbits, indulging in a wine-braised rabbit dish, or simply enjoying a relaxing coffee with the friendly goats, Celtic Glen offers a wealth of opportunities to immerse yourself in the farm's vibrant tapestry of activities and culinary delights.
